about me and what got me here

 
 

My name is Markus Lenhard. I live and work in Berlin / Germany and currently in the process moving to Vancouver Island / Canada.  Please contact me with your inquiries. I will be able to accommodate you as soon as i have a Canadian work visa which hopefully will arrive in late 2023. I am currently NOT taking on new clientele in Germany.

I am a professional Tattoo Artist since 2003 and specialize in abstract visualizations of nature and technology.
I am teaching design, creativity and workflow seminars since 2013.

Please be aware that the work you see here takes a certain amount of time to conceptualize and finish. I try to only show healed and settled work in high detail in order to give you a realistic idea about what to expect.  This Website is not frequently updated. The most recent body of work can be found on my Instagram @luxaltera

I am a firm believer that custom tattoo work and fine art should not be duplicated. Especially within the same industry/medium. Always remember to use other artists work as an inspiration and never for duplication.

I work in my home studio in Berlin, Germany until I complete my move to the Canadian West Coast in 2023.

At this point I'd like to thank all my clients, who helped me to get to this point. I am very proud of the diversity of my clientele and have been honored by people who traveled from all corners of the world and brought the most stimulating conversations into my life. Thank you for all the patience, trust and commitment! My world would be tiny without your stories. 

If you are thinking about travelling to Germany or Canada to get tattooed by me; Please contact me with any questions! I set up my Instagram to make this very easy.
Ninety percent of my clientele have to travel long distances. I have a lot of experience in that regard and how to get a lot done in a given amount of time. 

My work has become in demand in a way I never thought was possible when i started. Although I am very grateful for the attention and confirmation i am getting, I just cannot consider all requests and messages i am getting as i am only able to create a finite number of pieces in this lifetime.

Due to the elaborate and time consuming way I design my concepts, I am not much for working conventions or do a lot of guest appearances. I require you to take the burden of travelling so we can ensure the quality you expect can be achieved.
I am on a tight schedule with my clients and want to guarantee privacy and a relaxed atmosphere at the studio. Those of you who know me and have worked with me, know and appreciate this.

If you are interested in a new piece, please understand that my availability in the EU for new clientele will diminish as I am moving to Vancouver Island / Canada in 2022/23.
I will accept new work in the EU once my transition time is over, but only a small amount of new pieces each year.
To get in touch with me and get frequent news on my availability, events and openings,

Thanks for your attention and I hope to hear about your tattoo ideas soon!

Markus
